Financing adaptation or adapting finance

Financial experts discuss the rapidly transitioning landscape of climate finance to explore how a variety of public and private financial actors are responding to climate change risks and opportunities, and what role finance can play in adaptation solutions. This discussion is part of the Sydney Environment Institute’s Climate Adaptation series. As climate disasters increase, all sectors of society - from food supply chains to investment strategies - must adapt. This series, led by SEI Postdoctoral Fellow Justin See, platforms thought leaders across research, business, policy and communities to delve into just and sustainable climate change adaptation.
